Six Unimportant Things About Me

I was tagged by Rachaelweeks ago when I was madcrazybusy. I did make a note and today I found the note while cleaning my desk and in the spirit of blog-tag decided to do my homework even though it's late.

1. If procrastination were an Olympic sport, I would be going to Beijing. And a good chance of a medal.
2. I am a word pedant. (Add points 1 and 2 together and you can see me dithering over this list, deleting points because they're not really UNimportant to me...and then adding them again because they're probably unimportant to YOU.)
3. Hypnotic sleep tapes for insomnia do not work on me.
4. I can touch the tip of my nose with my tongue.
5. I've never broken an arm or leg or rib or collarbone, only my little toes.
6. I once worked weekends at a 33-flavour Ice Cream Parlour and even that exposure (and sampling) didn't turn me off my favourite food.

Hi Bron,
Haha - sorry to burst your bubble on #1 - but I think I've edged you out for the gold on that one. ;-) I'm also with you on #5 - well, a bone in my foot too - and those little breaks cause disproportionate amounts of pain. As to #6- I've never worked any food service, but after hearing how much Ben & Jerry's employees got to take home I searched for a location close to home - but there were none.
Have a great day!

I would give you both a run for your money with #1--and Bron, I'm a word pedant as well. *grin*

A job at Ben & Jerry's = my dream job. I used to make up a take-home pack every shift and, oh yum, I remember those days fondly. Not the rude customers (I remember the worst very well; he was a recognisable tennis star of the time who lambasted me for not making his milk-shake the way it "should be done", IOW, as in America) but the ice-dream!

And I'm grinning at the idea of an Olympic event in procrastination. Would anyone actually turn up, or would we all be home humming and haawwing about whether to turn up? :-)

PS: word pedantry is a GOOD thing, right?

How'd you get that job? My idea one is a taste tester at Lindt! But hey, I guess that's most women's.

Thanks for playing...

No worries, Rachael...although, as usual, I made my own rules. :-)
